Understanding Dental Veneers: Your Guide to a Beautiful Smile
Dental veneers are a transformative cosmetic dentistry option that can dramatically improve the appearance of your teeth. We specialize in providing high-quality veneers tailored to meet your specific aesthetic goals. Whether you’re looking to fix a chipped tooth, close gaps, or achieve a brighter smile, dental veneers offer a versatile solution.
Understanding what dental veneers are is the first step toward achieving the smile you’ve always dreamed of. Essentially, veneers are thin shells made from porcelain or composite material that are bonded to the front surface of your teeth. They are custom-designed to match the color, shape, and size of your natural teeth, ensuring a seamless and natural-looking result.
Choosing dental veneers means opting for a quick and effective way to enhance your smile. We offer comprehensive consultations to determine if veneers are the right option for you. Our team of experts will guide you through the entire process, from the initial assessment to the final placement of your veneers, ensuring you leave our clinic with a smile you’re proud to show off.
How Long Do Dental Veneers Last?
It’s a crucial consideration, especially when you’re investing in your smile. The longevity of dental veneers can vary depending on several factors, including the material used and how well you take care of them.
Porcelain veneers, which are the most popular type, typically last between 10 to 15 years. They are known for their durability and resistance to staining, making them a long-lasting option for those looking to enhance their smile. Composite veneers, on the other hand, generally last between 5 to 7 years but are easier to repair or replace.
Maintaining the longevity of your dental veneers involves regular dental check-ups and good oral hygiene. Simple practices like avoiding hard foods that could chip the veneers and refraining from using your teeth as tools can extend their lifespan. We provide comprehensive aftercare guidelines to ensure you get the most out of your investment.

When it comes to enhancing your smile, choosing the right provider makes all the difference. We pride ourselves on delivering exceptional quality and personalized care. Our team of skilled professionals uses state-of-the-art technology and materials to ensure that your veneers not only look natural but also stand the test of time.
What sets us apart is our commitment to patient satisfaction. From the moment you walk into our office, you’ll experience a welcoming atmosphere and a team dedicated to your dental health. We offer comprehensive consultations to understand your specific needs and aesthetic goals. Our customized treatment plans are designed to provide you with the most effective and long-lasting results, ensuring that your investment in dental veneers is a rewarding one.

“Dr. Nguyen and the dental hygienists are super nice! I felt comfortable and safe—even the time I started crying when I had a panic attack before getting some cavities filled. (Sorry about that lol.) Anyways, Dr. Nguyen was very kind, gave me space to chill out, and didn’t make me feel embarrassed, even though I wouldn’t have blamed him if he did.”

Happy Client from Mercer Island Office
“Dr. Thomas is an amazing dentist. At both his Mercer Island and Kirkland offices the staff is very warm and welcoming. Dr. Thomas has been my husband’s and my dentist for over 20 years and has done exceptional dental work. He makes his patients feel at ease with his caring, positive and fun personality. My grandchildren also see Dr. Thomas and he has an amazing way of helping them to feel comfortable and thus, cooperative. Dr. Thomas has the highest medical and ethical standards. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Thomas for any dental procedure.”

Milo
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“Great dentist! I came after Covid for my first checkup and cleaning, and ended up needing to have some childhood crowns replaced. During the process they were very thorough, even once getting a crown remade to have a perfect fit. One of those visits came in under the estimate. I appreciate the care they take in their practice. The staff are always nice and fun to talk to. Since my first series I’ve come here for over a year and have always had great experiences. Still need to floss more but the dentists and assistants are super nice about it! Also have great reminder system, and are very patient and thorough when working on insurance issues.”
Vanessa Hoffman
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“This was my first dental visit and I must say they were definitely unorganized as their X-ray machine kept freezing the images delaying my appointment and they’re not put together. The manager Carmen told me I was going to have to pay a $70 balance. Which I completely agreed on no problem. I got a bill for $140 and was never told I had a $50 co-pay on top & they don’t use silver filling so I had to pay extra for a white filling. I was not told about any of these extra charges. The manager Carmen hung up on me over the phone without trying to fully explain everything and was very rude to me. I would not recommend this dentist because they are not truthful and they want you to pay double your bill so please be careful.”
Linda Scott
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“I visited Thomas Dentistry as a new patient on 9/9/21 and was impressed with their friendliness and professionalism. While there, multiple staff joined in to help resolve a personal issue, for which I was very appreciative. My husband and I will definitely schedule again with Thomas Dentistry Kirkland, and I’ll recommend them to family and friends.”
Ronald Folse
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“I’vy been a patient with Dr Troy for fifteen years and have always been impressed with him and his entire staff. I am 86 years old and was hesitant to make my visit, but his whole staff used the best practices to insure the safety in the office. Unfortunately , I will be moving to California ima month or so and will have to find a new dentist , and hope that they will be as good as Dr Thomas and his staff.”
Elaina Sh
Happy Client from Kirkland Office
“Went to that office last year to get a crown on implant and Dr. Thomas did the ugliest crown possible. Shape and height looked completely different from natural tooth I had in that place before. He did not even try to fix it. This year my new dentist confirmed that the crown should have been done completely different but now Im stuck with this crown for a while because it will cost a ton to re-do it since that is a dental implant crown, not just a regular crown. I guess I missed the first red flag when they said they do root canals and extractions too. Of course, why even going to roots canals specialists and oral surgeons if You can get a “buffet of services” at Dr. Thomas! Also Molly at the front desk is the rudest receptionist I ve even seen, billing office could not get the numbers right and overcharged me for about $800 then refunded but can this office be more unprofessional and thirsty for money?!!”
Peter Christian
Happy Client from Mercer Island Office
“I did not have a dentist in the Seattle area and choose Thomas Dentistry because they were close and nearby. Boy, did I strike gold! I hadn't been to the dentist in a while and I needed some work done to get clearance for a other medical procedure. They were so great in getting me set up and expediting my treatments. Everyone was very professional and friendly. I can highly recommend them for your dental work.”
Nelson Lopez
Happy Client from Mercer Island Office
“Very very exceptional service, from making the appointment all the way to check out.”
